Maxxis Minion DHR II Folding Tubeless Tyre 60 TPI 3C MaxxTerra EXO+ Trail MTB

The Maxxis Minion DHR II 27.5x2.60 60 TPI Folding MaxxTerra EXO+ Tubeless Tyre is engineered for riders who demand exceptional performance on varied terrains. Designed with a trail-specific approach, this tyre shares the aggressive tread pattern of its downhill counterpart but benefits from lighter casing construction, offering a perfect balance of durability and agility. Its wider shoulder knobs, inspired by the legendary Minion DHF, deliver unmatched cornering control, while the paddle-like center knobs enhance braking power and stability on challenging descents.

Featuring the innovative 3C MaxxTerra compound, this tyre ensures superior traction and longevity, allowing you to push harder and ride longer. The EXO+ puncture protection technology integrates SilkShield and EXO materials to reinforce the tread and sidewalls, significantly reducing the risk of flats and damage from sharp obstacles. Moreover, its tubeless-ready design means you can run lower air pressures for improved grip and smoother rides, all while minimizing the chance of punctures.

Whether you're tackling loose, medium, or mixed trail conditions, the Maxxis Minion DHR II adapts seamlessly, providing confident handling and responsive braking. Its ramped and siped tread pattern ensures fast rolling and straight tracking, making it the ideal companion for riders seeking durability without sacrificing speed. Equip your MTB with this tyre to unlock new levels of control and adventure on every trail.
